ACT I
Overture
Ring forth, ye bells
Constance, my daughter
When he is here
The air is charged with amatory numbers
Sir Marmaduke--my dear young friend, Alexis
Dr. Daly's Blessing
With heart and with voice
My kindly friends, I thank you for this greeting
My child, I join in these congratulations
With heart and with voice
Welcome joy, adieu to sadness!
All is prepared for sealing and for signing
Love feeds on many kinds of food, I know
My name is John Wellington Wells

Finale, ACT I
Sprites of earth and air
Now to the banquet we press
Be happy all--the feast is spread before ye
Oh love, true love--unworldly, abiding!
Oh, marvellous illusion!

ACT II
'Tis twelve, I think
Why, where be oi, and what be oi a doin'
Dear friends, take pity on my lot
Oh joy! oh joy!
Thou hast the power thy vaunted love
I rejoice that it's decided
Oh, I have wrought much evil with my spells!
Hate me! I drop my H's--have through life!
Oh agony, rage, despair!
Alexis! Doubt me not, my loved one!
Oh, my voice is sad and low
Oh, joyous boon! oh, mad delight
Or I or he Must die!
Now to the banquet we press
